All this "growth" is largely driven by the debt and grand wisdom of the Fed's monetary policy. Those closest to the money printing press get undiluted gains and by the time that money circulates back down to the general popul

it was the government that caused this in the first place. I always wonder why people suggest this, when the "cure" to the ailment is more of the disease.

Which man we talking about here? Anyhow, my point is that nothing prevents Citizen X to send more money to the IRS. They talk about it and will "do it only if others do it" but like I said they are only using words rather than ac

Nope. It might be just a form of virtue signaling knowing full well they won't get their bluff called.

My general point was essentially that the "average" C# dev has no clue/idea about tech so much so that they don't even know F# exists. I'm not making any assertions about OOP vs FP. Though some claims would be that

There has always been a dark horse OS within .NET its called F#. But what is sad about the state of the average C# dev is that when I ask them about their opinions on F#, they always respond with a "whats F#?" That's the prob

This.... is one way to do it, but it’s got nothing to do with the list you provided. Don’t confuse “oils, animal fats” with things like a fast food meal.

This of course is a big side effect of quantitative easing aka printing money. Those who held on to securities and other advanced financial instruments saw prices being pulled upward due to the massive flood of hot off the press money. Gues

I hope your wife is okay! If I’d see that happen, guess it’s goat stew for dinner.

I actually find the F# experience using VS Code + Ionide plugin in a Mac beyond what I’d ever thought was possible without something like a full blown ide. The maintainers of Ionide also just got Microsoft $$ so that’s even better news. But

So let’s go down the list of some of those currencies: 1. USD ~ is markedly different post breaking from gold standard so 40-50 years 2. EUR - created 1999 3. Russian ruble - post fall of Soviet Union. I mean what’s the standard here? One w

The newer or smaller projects will always take in a good pull request. Take a look at any number of “issues” and see if they are legitimate bugs and try and tackle those. What this means is don’t expect to submit a PR right away to <inse

This is only the case because investors are willing to buy treasury bonds and loan the money out at those levels. If things get worse(though no one knows where the line is) and they will, at some point those investors will wisen up and dema

There isn’t “extreme” inequality, there is higher inequality though. Btw, if you were to lookup the root cause for this you’d find the government and the fed printing money that pushes up equities.

Then what do you do when you realize you’re not the smartest, or best athlete, or good looking? There will always be inequality to some degree or another.

Check out F#. Definitely cleaner syntax and more powerful than C#. Visually looks alot like Python as well!

what is data engineering to you? You don't need a cloud provider to setup a "cluster". Look at kubernetes where you can run a "cluster" in 1 machine that will have multiple pods/services running.

Or... take the bolder move and conquer your emotions (shave it off) or be subservient to them. A weak man with hair is still a weak man.

Not to mention that the majority of engineers within the company will not willingly work full steam ahead on an enterprise that will destroy their life's work and make many of them obsolete (as they are combustion engine experts).

I’d argue it is recent as most people have never even heard of it. That and the just recently ironed kinks of running .NET on *nix systems.

F# or Rust! The former is never talked about, but from the little I’ve seen it definitely looks interesting. And well, Rust, because...Rust.

Can you define "success"? Furthermore, can you provide examples where schooling isn't better served by a private entity (in scale and time)?

I’m not sure I follow. Care to expand how one can serve someone they aren’t beholden to in some way?

The fundamental problem with public school teachers are that the “customer” in the relationship isn’t the parent or the child, but the gov bureaucrat. So while the results of a teacher might hurt the child or the parent, who cares as it’s n

Most of the commentary on the signaling of an inverted yield curve is all parroted by everyone else as “ominous”. Catherine Wood is the only person I’ve seen to go against the grain on this one [0]. Essentially, she notes that the yield cur

They just don't simply "acquire" you, with a gun to your head. They make an offer and then one presumes they would mull it over. It is publicly known that Yahoo tendered the $1 billion USD offer at Facebook in its infancy. Ob

I do believe there will come a point where we have a “replicator” or printer-like machine or robot that will provide for everything we might want. I don’t believe Mr. Yang will be alive when that time comes about, which is an issue for his
